Abstract

Corporate culture Nursing education Power Retaliation Social control Teacher attitudes
Donnelly recalls how she experienced the sting of humiliation from one of her nursing professors when she was a junior nursing student. Here, she comments that humiliation is bad enough, but the fear of retaliation from a teacher who demeans is even worse. Humiliation is a form of social control most often practiced in situations where one party has more power or status than the other. Teachers have power over students; managers have power over staff, and nurses who have worked many years may act as if they have power over new nurses. The tendency to demean another may be a learned behavior or part of the work culture.
